    Hi Tsuji, Thank you for your reply. Your are indeed correct, there are a number of inconsistencies which have been the result of my editing. dn: cn=Test Person,ou=internal,dc=mycompany,dc=co,dc=uk objectclass: top objectclass: person objectclass: organizationalPerson objectclass...

    setting and displaying cookies

    When using cookie's for authentication purposes I have used an if statement to check for the existence of the cookie and then to either display the form or to re direct the user to the next page. For example on the login page: <?php // set before <html> tag if ( isset (...

    PHP &amp; LDAP - The mystery of the $data array()

    Hi, I'm working on a small php script to add, remove and modify data held in an LDAP directory. I can connect and bind OK to the LDAP Directory, and I can remove data successfully, however I am unable to add data. When I submit the data via a web page form I get an error 17 message saying...

    OpenLDAP error - Undefined attribute type (17)

    Hi Gergaholic, Line 4 looks wrong - objectclasserson I think it should be objectclass: person Also line 5 ojbectclass:employee needs a space and the correct spelling for object. Is objectclass: employee specified in a custom schema? Toby Heywood http://www.tobyheywood.co.uk/

    EXT3 Performance

    Finally got to the bottom of this one, with out the expense of purchasing a new hard drive. The issue was caused by the linux kernel choosing to use IDE drivers for my SATA drive rather than SCSI. After forcing the kernel to use only SCSI drivers I was able to transfer 20GB across a gigabit...

    EXT3 Performance

    Can anyone remember the last time they formatted a laptp HD with ext3, and if you can what size was it and how lng did it take? The reason for persisting with the questions is simple. If format speed is indicative of overall performance of the disk then I need a different HD. I also eperience...

    EXT3 Performance

    Thanks for the response. So far everything I've found suggests that hdparm will not work with SATA disks. Toby Heywood http://www.tobyheywood.co.uk/

    EXT3 Performance

    Hi, I recently bought a Samsung X11 Laptop, with 80GB SATA HD (5400RPM), 1GB RAM and install Slackware Linux 11.0 I found that formating the main partition took approximately an hour (it's a 60GB primary partition). After a X number of mounts, fsch kicks in automatically and proceeds to take...

    Manage Database Sizes

    Hi, I've been googling for a while now and can't find what I'm looking for. Is there a standard way of managing database sizes, for example placing a database size limit and enforcing that. Obviously this can be done on a per user basis with quotas on the linux fs, but surely this would mean...

    AIX and Default Gateways

    Hi, I have just inherited a AIX 5.2 system which when rebooted appears to reinstate gateways for subnets which no longer exist. Can anyone point me in the dirrection of some useful information. So far reading the manual has not really proved helpful but mind numbing. I'm not sure if the...

    Active Directory &amp; Environment Variables

    Hi, I'm currently investigating using the MS Office Custom Installation/Maintenance Wizard to rollout a new Outlook Profile to 60+ users. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to pull the users First and Last names from Active Directory and to place them in environment variables so that they...

    automating tasks at set intervals

    ArkM & JPadie, Thank you for your responses. I have chosen to use the code suggested by ArkM as it seems the most simplistic, yet it hit the nail dead centre on the head. Thank you both again for your suggestions. Regards Toby Heywood http://www.tobyheywood.co.uk/

    automating tasks at set intervals

    Dear all, I am in the process of developing a script to upload images to a web server (via FTP) from a PC running 1 or more web cams. FTP side of things sorted. I'm now trying to work out the best angle to approach automating the uploading of images at a set interval. My intended route so...

    ftp_put - adsolute path or relative

    AdaHacker, You are a genius! I think next time I decided to do any coding I'll try it with my eye's open. It was so simple, I missed it. Thanks again. Regards Toby Heywood http://www.tobyheywood.co.uk/

    ftp_put - adsolute path or relative

    Hi all, I'm in the process of creating a script which will be used to upload an image from a webcam every 5-10 seconds to our web server. The script so far works when I run the script from within the same directory as the file I want to upload, but not when I run it from my home directory. I...
